I'm officially pissed off by the architect on EOS

Had it happen once during the start of the third phase. So before I tried it again, I cleared everything out before engaging it.

Ah, that sucks.  Once had a bug on Elaaden where I couldn't pick up a data pad that led me to the drive core.  I was able to finish the main quest but unable to establish an outpost on Elaaden. Patch fixed that issue

Did you pick water? It bugs out for me when water is picked. If I pick the gas the Architect doesn't bug out.

I've killed it twice, once with water, once with gas, haven't had it bug out on me. I didn't go into the nomad though, just chased it on foot (wasn't that far).

See, that's the thing. First time it happened I didn't even notice for quite some time. Then I looked and saw that the leg didn't have any hitpoints left and I did zero damage. That's when I took to the internet and saw a couple of advices of how to deal with the issue. One, stay out of the Nomad to chase it, the other one, take the Nomad. The bug doesn't seem to be tied to your means of transportation but to the thing taking flight with one leg already shot down to zero, which doesn't register upon landing.

I really like this game, but I discover a new and irritating bug nearly everyday. The ones I read about, like this one, are even worse. Ian mentioned that two patches, one aimed st rapid rollout of changes, are in the works. We were specifically discussions weapons and crafting, but I hope a lot of bug fixes are soon to arrive. V1.05 is an improvement, but it's still very flawed.
